Re-Imagining Community – Leadership Development Workshops are action oriented for community leaders, youth and concerned citizens.

The day-long events begin with a room full of strangers - from all races, religions and walks of life - and will end with a room full of friends, colleagues and potential partners. 

Over the course of the day participants will:

• Identify the things that separate us
• Identify the things that connect us
• Engage in activities that will break down the walls of separation  

When: Saturday, Jan. 14 OR Sunday, Jan. 15
